UFC Champions Nogueira & Silva To Open New Training Center

UFC interim heavyweight champion Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira and middleweight champ Anderson Silva will soon open a new mixed-martial-arts academy, Nogueira and Silva Mixed Martial Arts Academy, in Miami. In addition to teaching others, the two title-holders will train together at the center, which officially opens May 16.

Also this interesting tidbit that the story serves as a disguise for: Nog says in the story that his next fight is in August (UFC 86). But that could be a problem because he's expected to be a TUF 8 coach and if he loses and drops the title...
